3-D numerical study of the effect of fin discontinuity on heat transfer augmentation in pipes having internal longitudinal fins for turbulent compressible flow

Pipes with internal longitudinal fins are ideal to be utilized in flow-based waste heat recovery applications. They provide significantly higher heat transfer coefficient than plain pipes, and lower pressure drop than helically finned pipes. This paper investigates the effect of fin discontinuity on...
